The straight antenna makes me think termite, but I’m not a bugologist.
Entomologist.
I know, I was kidding :)
...and I tried to be the smart-ass... :)
I might have missed the cue since I’m no assologist either!
Proctologist. sry... :)
Yeah, subterranean termites.
Thank you!!
I was unfamiliar with them until a few weeks ago, when we find some coming up through the kitchen floor. Apparently the live like 30' underground and make little mud tubes to the surface to get food. They had to drill like half inch deep holes all the way around my house and pump insecticide into them. Very annoying.
